<\/del>In school, I was always scared of getting an answer wrong. Red marks across a test or paper would make me cringe. What did I do wrong? I studied so hard. I wanted my grades to be perfect, but perfection was often unattainable.<\/p>\n

I’m sure you’ve felt that same fear and embarrassment too. We have been conditioned to always strive for perfection, even if it is unattainable.<\/p>\n

Our schools punish kids for their failures<\/a>, but is that the best way to teach our future generations? They condition us to find the one right answer, but there is rarely ever one solution to a problem.<\/p>\n

Those lessons often translate to our lives outside of school. Most companies are searching for people who can come up with innovative solutions.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, we expect companies to tell us exactly what to do. We have been conditioned not to take chances. We look at mistakes <\/a>and believe there is no recovering from them.<\/p>\n

If there’s anything I’ve learned from studying creative people, it’s that they are unafraid to take chances. They leap into challenges head first. They treat failures as a chance to learn instead of as an indictment or themselves and their work.<\/p>\n

[bctt tweet=”Everyone makes mistakes, but not everyone learns from them.” username=”kevin_chung”]<\/p>\n

When they fail, they look at that experience and ask themselves “What could I have done better?” That’s exactly what we all need to do. Stop getting down on yourself for making a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes, but not everyone learns from them.<\/p>\n

[bctt tweet=”Don’t worry about making a mistake. Mistakes are the foundation of learning.” username=”kevin_chung”]<\/p>\n

We need to be more bold in our thoughts and our actions. So go out there and take chances. Don’t worry about making a mistake. Mistakes are the foundation of learning.<\/p>\n
